Hey everyone!
Today's update includes a set of performance improvements we've been working on over the past few weeks, along with a brand-new Statistics feature!
This update includes:
A new asset cleanup system aimed at reducing memory usage and improving overall performance.
A fix targeting the memory leak related to our networking solution.
Since the performance reports started coming in, we've been looking into the issue from different angles and working on improvements. We hope this update makes the game run more smoothly, and we'll continue gathering feedback and making further improvements where needed.
The new Statistics page is now available! Find the new Statistics page in Settings!
You can now keep track of your total focus time, focus sessions, activity breakdowns, mood history, achievements, and more. We hope it's a nice way to look back on your progress and stay motivated over time.
As always, we'd really appreciate your feedback after trying the update. If you notice any issues or have thoughts on the changes, please let us know.
Thank you for all the reports, testing, and patience. It genuinely helped us track down these issues and work toward a solution.
Talk soon,
Team GigaPuff 💖
Hey friends,
The first update from our roadmap is here, and we're excited for you to finally try it!!
🎤The voice chat is officially live! 🔊
On-Together has always been about making busy days feel a little less lonely. A place to drop in, share a moment, and get back to your day. Voice chat felt like the next natural step.
So how does it work?
🔊 Spatial voice chat is now available, meaning you can chat to those physically closest to you.
🎤 Just Press V to toggle your microphone on/off.
🔍 Create, join, or filter voice and non-voice lobbies separately.
⛔ Voice chat is completely optional. You can disable it at any time in the Settings, or use Silent Focus Mode if you don't want to hear incoming voice chat while you're working or studying.
🎭 We've also added a brand-new Outdoor Stage, perfect for open mics, talent shows, karaoke, storytelling, or simply hanging out together.
There's a little more...
We've also included a few quality-of-life improvements and productivity updates:
📝 To-Do List
Drag and drop tasks to reorder them.
The text cursor is now active when creating a new task.
Press Enter to create a new task.
Press Ctrl + Backspace to delete entire words while typing.
⚙️ General Improvements
Faster scrolling across all menus and windows.
Sort public lobbies by player count.
Fixed the "Nick Name 1" error in modded lobbies.
Hiding UI in Desktop Mode now keeps your pomodoro timer and productivity tools visible.
This is just the first roadmap update. We'll be kicking off the Back to School Update Series next and sharing more details as each update gets closer. 💛
As always, thank you for all your suggestions and discussions. Whether you're meeting new people, catching up with friends, or just enjoying a little company while you work, we hope the update helps make On-Together feel even more alive.♥️
Speak soon,
GigaPuff 💖
Hey everyone! 💛
After reading all the comments on our roadmap, we thought it'd be nice to occasionally share a bit more about what's going on behind the scenes and explain some of the decisions we're making.
So here's a little update from us.
We've seen a lot of questions about voice chat recently, so we thought we'd talk a bit about why we've wanted it to be part of On-Together.
From the very beginning, we wanted On-Together to be a place where you could share the weight of a busy day with others. Whether you're working on a project, studying for an exam, drawing, writing, or simply hanging out, we imagined our game as a small, lively neighborhood park. A place you can pop into during the day, see who's around, chat with friends or strangers, then head back to work whenever you're ready.
screenshots shared by usuku, seibaa and paubiina
All of us on the team work remotely so we spend long hours by ourselves. We also know many of our players study alone, live far from friends, or just enjoy having a little company while getting things done.
Voice chat has felt like a natural part of that vision and we wanted to build it.
One thing we really want to emphasize is that voice chat is completely optional. If you never want to use it, you don't have to.
You'll be able to enable or disable it whenever you want, create or join voice and non-voice lobbies separately, and filter them in the server browser.
Since it's spatial, conversations happen naturally. If you'd rather not join one, you can simply walk away.
We're also adding Silent Focus Mode, which completely mutes incoming voice chat while you're working or studying.
We've noticed that a lot of players already use voice calls while playing On-Together. Voice chat is our way of making that possible in-game too, while keeping it entirely optional for everyone.
We've seen a few people asking what "update series" means.
Instead of one huge update, we're planning to release several smaller updates over the season.
The focus won't just be on adding new content. A big part of it is improving what's already there.
Things like improvements to the To-Do List, Journal, chat, IDs, and lots of smaller quality-of-life requests are exactly the kinds of things we're focusing on during these updates.
We've been revisiting existing productivity tools, polishing older systems, and working on a brand new productivity feature alongside the Statistics feature that's actually been sitting in our design documents for some time. We kept refining it until we felt it was ready and we still are.
A blurry first look at Statistics. Early wip.
If you've been around our Discord, you probably know we're just a team of four developers. We read the bug reports, suggestions, and discussions ourselves, alongside our amazing volunteer moderators.
A lot of the feedback you've shared, both on Discord and under the roadmap post, has already made its way onto our task board. We'll share more details as each update gets closer, but we wanted you to know that your feedback really is being heard.
We've also seen lots of guesses about the final item on the roadmap.
Just like the Summer Studies DLC, we don't plan to lock gameplay features behind paid content.
The DLC will mainly be cosmetic, while the free update alongside it will include one of the community's most requested features.
We'll keep this one a secret a little longer.
We don't usually write these kinds of posts on Steam -we normally end up talking about this stuff on Discord- but we'd like to share more little development notes like this from time to time.
Thanks for all the discussions, suggestions, bug reports, and ideas. They genuinely help us decide what to work on next.
As always, feel free to ask us anything about the roadmap or share what's on your mind.
Talk soon! 💛
Team GigaPuff 💖
Hey everyone! 💛
First of all, thank you.
Over the past months, you've shared ideas, reported bugs, cheered us on and spent countless study and work sessions together in On-Together. Every update we've made has been shaped by your feedback and we're incredibly grateful for such a kind and supportive community.
Today, we're excited to share a look at what's coming next!
One of our most requested features is finally on the way! We're introducing spatial voice chat, making it even easier to connect, collaborate, and hang out with your fellow co-workers in real time.
As we head into the new school season, we'll be releasing a series of updates packed with quality-of-life improvements, productivity tool upgrades and fresh themed content to make your study sessions even better.
We're also working on a new thematic update and DLC that many of you have been asking for. We're keeping this one under wraps for a little while longer, but we can't wait to share more when the time is right. 👀
As always, this roadmap is meant to give you a glimpse of where we're heading. Development can change as we continue listening to your feedback and polishing each update, but we're excited to bring these features to life together.
Thank you for being part of this journey and for making On-Together such a welcoming place every day. We genuinely couldn't do it without you.
We hope you're as excited as we are. 💛 - Team GigaPuff 💖

Hi everyone,
Firstly we’d like to start off by saying
We are so thrilled to see so many of you enjoying On-Together, and to watch our lovely community grow. We truly have the sweetest community out there 🥹
We have a few updates we’d love to share with you so please set your focus task to ‘reading’ and scroll down 👀
For those of you who have bought the game or will buy the game before 6th March, the Early Bird DLC will automatically arrive in your library to say thank you for your support & loyalty. We asked what our community would like to see and the majority of votes went to a shiny gold ID card, so that everyone will know you are On-Together OG’s! We really appreciate you all showing us as much support as you have, it means so much to us that you love this little world we’ve built 🥰
Not only will the Early Bird DLC arrive in your library, but if you buy the game by 6th March you’ll also automatically get the game’s full soundtrack, INCLUDING 4 brand new bonus tracks that have just been added to the game! We recently added 4 new tracks to the game but these are 4 never before heard songs, we hope you love them! This adorable soundtrack is composed by the talented Willow Collins- we are so grateful for this perfect accompaniment to On-Together 💝 If you already have On-Together, both the DLC and Soundtrack should be in your Steam library right now! For anyone buying the game after 6th March, you’ll be able to buy the soundtrack later too (priced at $2.99, or bundled with the game for a little discount).
In case you missed it, we have added French and Japanese to the game so bonjour and
こんにちは to our French and Japanese speaking friends!! 🌍
We've been gathering all kinds of feedback and ideas from you since the beginning, and we're currently working on our roadmap which will be shared very soon!

Hi everyone! Firstly, we just want to say a HUGE thank you to all of the support we've received from all of you in the first 2 weeks since launch - it's been pretty overwhelming for us, but we're so grateful and happy things are going so well, and so many of you are playing and enjoying On-Together!

Japanese and French localizations added.
4 new songs added
Modded lobby tag is added: Use this when hosting a modded lobby

Hello everyone!
We’re so excited to announce that…
Here’s what to expect from the full game:
Stay focused using the pomodoro timer with customizable ringtones, the journal, task list and habit tracker!
The more time you put into On-Together means the more time you spend locked in, the more you can level up! There are lots of new avatar customization items as well as desk customization so you can decorate your setup! There are also 10 pets to unlock and keep you company.
We are all about that work life balance in On-Together, so when it’s time to have a break we’ve got you covered! You can play basketball, go fishing, create art on the chalkboards or jam out in the music room!
Explore the 17 different hang out spots to find the perfect place to match your mood! These hang outs include: open air library, blossom lake, beaches, swan floaters, rooftop hangs and even a secret one hiding behind a crystal blue wall … 👀
Lots and lots of focus activities so that you can body double all day (and night)! You can look forward to activities like: reading, writing, painting, gaming, meditating, eating and dancing!
We have been listening and working hard behind the scenes to see if it would be possible to carry saves over from the demo into the full game, but the changes we’ve made based on demo feedback has meant the versions are now too different to be able to do this. We want to make sure everyone gets as much value from the game as possible and these changes give the game more longevity and give you incentive to lock in on your tasks for longer! We hope you understand as we would love to see you all enjoying the full game as much as you did the demo!!
We will be continuing to work on the game for future updates, so keep your eyes peeled for news on that! Please feel free to join our discord, leave a review, and share feedback with us here! As a small team of indie devs, reviews and feedback go a really long way! Thank you so much for your support so far 🥰
That’s enough from us for now, we’ll see you in On-Together!
